Who is your cellular carrier? I think everyone has a service like this now. For $9.99 a month from Verizon, thier Navigator is everything and then some that a Tom-Tom is, and it's already in your pocket because it's in your phone.

Garmin software updates are an ordeal for anyone
who has a life and other, better things to do.
If Tom Tom has free updates buy that.
I bought a $200 Lowrance since that whole GPS is just
a little more than Garmin software. At that price I'll buy
a new GPS every couple of years for updates just to avoid
the Garmin update ordeal.
No need to debate this subject with me as I own more
Garmins than anyone and have owned them longer and
used them for more things (automotive, topographic, marine).
Lowrance is my next prime supplier.
Lowrance topo and marine maps are way better than
Garmin too.

My sister worked for Pfizer and got the Tom Tom for going over quota....long story short we went skiing over the winter and it worked great, much better than my Garmin Marine/Road gps.
I used the Garmin Nuvi in a rental car once....it told me to turn after I needed to turn..didn't like it.
The touch screen on tom tom unit is very easy to navigate I thought.

restaurants were. Morel always read the whole add.
